Gravy Boat Winner and Fire King Chilli Bowls

I had a lot of fun doing my six-month blogiversary Great Gravy Boat Giveaway. Thank you so much to everyone who entered
-- I enjoyed reading responses from all over the world! I wish I could
send all of you a gravy boat... everyone seems so lovely!

I only have one to giveaway this time though... and the winner is:

Emily Vannah!

Congrats Emily -- send me an email TypingSunflowers(at)gmail.com with your mailing address and I will get your gravy boat and plate in the mail for you!

I did the giveaway old school style and put the names in a bowl (Pyrex, of course) shuffled them, handed the bowl to my mother, who closed her eyes, and pulled out a card.

I recently thrifted the white bowl that goes with this big Butterfly Gold bowl above -- see the photos here on the Pyrex Collective III blog. I also ranted a little about my local Salvation Army on that same post. The non-priced mixing bowl I wanted to purchase last week is nowhere to be found... but I did find these chilli bowls. I promised myself that I wouldn't collect Fire King anything (I have enough Pyrex, clearly...) but for 99 cents each, these little cuties were too fun to pass up.

They are great sizes for children and it makes me think that whoever owned them previously may have used them for a son and daughter.

I think we'll just use them as HIS and HER ice cream bowls for now.

(Use your imagination. I didn't have any ice cream in the freezer...)

That Salvation Army is slowly redeeming itself.

Thanks again to the giveaway entries!

(And stay tuned -- I'm sure I'll have more giveaways in the future. Pyrex will probably be involved. What a surprise.)
